Ryan Valley Farm
Weekly Box Program



What is our Weekly Box Program?

     Much like our CSA, our weekly box program gives members of the community a chance to build a relationship with the people growing their food. With this program you will gain a better understanding of how to eat with the seasons, learn new recipes, incorporate more of the fruits and vegetables that you love into your diet, all while providing you and your family with nutritious food that fits into your busy lifestyle.

Why be a Member of our
Weekly Box Program?

     The Ryan Valley Farm Weekly Box Program offers members the same flexibility as our CSA, but with less of a commitment.  First, we begin with a standard box designed to provide you with the widest variety of nutrients from the fruits and vegetables that are ready for harvest. Next, we allow you to make substitutions so that your box contains more of what you love! 


What will be in your Weekly Box?

     Each box will include 8-12 different selections of fresh produce grown by Ryan Valley Farm.  Boxes will be offered from July 7 - October 13.  The market value of each box is $25, a savings of 20% for you and your family each week.  If you purchase a box each week, this program will save your family $75 throughout the season! Additionally, your box will include recipes for how to use what is included in your box.

     Each week we will contact you with a list of what will be in the standard box, as well as a list of produce to make any substitutions based on your preferences.  For example, if the standard box includes turnips but you don't like turnips, you can replace them with anything from the substitutions list.  The market value of each product will be provided so that making substitutions will be as easy as possible.

     Each box will feed 1-2 people for 1 week.  If you have a larger family, or if you eat a lot of fruits and vegetables, you may also use the substitutions list described above to add on any additional items into your box, at an additional cost.

     When you sign up for our Weekly Box Program, your name will be added to our list of members and you will receive a box each week at your selected pick-up location. If you do not wish to receive a box in a given week, we kindly ask that you notify us 48 hours prior to your pick-up time so that a box may be offered to someone on our waiting list. Payment will be due at the time of pick-up.
